Canada must Oppose Privatization of Water and Recognise Water as a Basic Human Right!
One point four billion people lacked access to drinking water and a further 2.6 billion to basic sanitation facilities in 2007. A reality that has direct and harmful consequences on the levels of health, education, poverty, social development, and gender equity in the lives of the world’s poor.
Please sign our petition which calls on Canada to oppose the privatization of water and recognise water as a basic human right. The petition will be presented to the federal government in 2008.
